Dallas Stars News and Notes

By Richard Pollak
In an exclusive interview, the Dallas Stars re-hired head coach,
Ken Hitchcock, who explains why he came back to coach the Stars after
announcing his retirement at the end of the 2017 season. Even before
Dallas Stars Stanley Cup Champion Coach Ken Hitchcock was let go by
former Dallas Stars GM Doug Armstrong of the St.Louis Blues, Hitch was
ready to retire to Gettysburg to fulfill his dream of becoming a Civil
War Historian. We asked the coach why the redirection back to Dallas.
He replied,
“I can see a quick fix, here in Dallas, all the pieces are
already to win like in 1999 and 2016,”
The big question is whether Hitch can turn the “Modano players”
on the team ,who won’t play defense to buy into his philosophy.
Scoring leader Tyler Seguin is heading to free agency after next
season.
